Loretta is founder and principal yoga teacher at Unfold. She has been teaching yoga on a full time basis for 13 years. Her practice and study commenced 28 years ago and she has experienced profound results, most notably in assisting with her own back conditions, arising in her early 20's, and in preparation for the births of her two children. Loretta's approach is based on her consistent personal practice and the inspiration from her teachers and students, as well as her long time interest in the study of Hatha yoga, and eastern philosophies.

Loretta was first certified with the International Yoga Teachers Association (IYTA) in 2003, and is a full member. She attended the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute in Pune, India, February 2011.

Loretta has recently completed a 400 hour teacher training with Darrin McNally, and holds an Introductory Level Two Certificate in Iyengar Yoga.

Loretta encourages everyone to enjoy the benefits of yoga; to generate physical and mental health. She has seen her business grow from teaching in halls and schools, to the opening in 2012 of Unfold Yoga + Wellbeing in the regional centre of Mount Barker in the Adelaide Hills.

"My teachers have inspired me to approach yoga lovingly, but seriously. Life unfolds from its core. Each day is a new beginning. In order to free ourselves from restrictions and tensions, both mentally and physically, we need compassion, encouragement and courage. We find the essence for this deep inside ourselves. Yoga helps us to reach this place."Loretta
